Best Apps for Creating GIFs on iPhone for Free

GIFs are fun but they are more fun, when they are made by you. Whether it is text conversations, social media interaction or your work, they are the wittiest medium to relate. Between Snapchat, Instagram and Periscope, the trend of sharing moving images and live stream videos has become as simple as point and shoot. And you don’t need to be professional to achieve the desired results. With the right app, it is now easier than ever.

While iOS 11 supports GIFs and contains a folder in Photos section to save them but how exactly do you generate them on your iPhone in the first place? It’s simple. In order to make animated GIFs, you need to download some third-party apps on your iPhone. The following apps are our favorite free video-editing apps to create your own gifs on your iPhone.
